The ion pair [Hg(cyclam)]2+[Co(CO)4]- displays a Co(–I) to Hg(II) metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT) band at 288 nm. Upon MMCT excitation the ion pair undergoes a photoconversion to [HgCO2(CO)8].

The intense long-wavelength absorption of Naphthol Green B at λmax = 712 nm is assigned to a ligand-to-metal charge transfer (MLCT) transition. LMCT excitation of the complex in aqueous solution leads to the reduction of Fe(III) to Fe(II) with a quantum yield of ϕ = 1.14×10−3 at λirr = 577 nm.

Abstract Incomplexes of the type [(NC)2HgIIN CFeII(CN)5]4- which are formed in aqueous mixtures of Hg(CN)2 and [Fe(CN)6]4- both metals are weakly coupled. Optical metal to metal charge transfer (MMCT) excitation from FeII to HgIIleads to the reduction of HgII to Hg0 an the oxidation of [Fe(CN)6]4- to [Fe(CN)6]3-. In the complex [(NC)5CoI-HgII-CoI(CN)5]6- the m etals are strongly coupled by direct but polar metal metal bonds. MMCT (CoI → HgII) excitation induces the photoredox reaction: [HgCo2(CN)10]6-→Hg0 + 2[Co(CN)5]3-.
